Additional information

Jamul Indian Village, a federally recognized Kumeyaay band in San Diego County, issued this piece under the Native American $1 Coin Act's broader licensing framework that permits tribal nations to produce their own numismatic items. The Comanche subject has no direct connection to the Kumeyaay people — these tribal gaming and collectible issues frequently draw on pan-Indian iconography rather than the issuer's own cultural heritage, a commercial decision that has drawn quiet criticism from within Native communities.
